We purchased a 2010 173T about a month ago. Taking our first trip this weekend to Door County, Wi. for 5 days.

We tent camped Maine all last September, and the Florida Gulf coast during March. It was in Florida that we saw an rpod and became intrigued. It was time to get off the ground!

The Wife is like a snapping turtle...once she gets ahold of something, it's on! She finally found this camper with one owner and we pulled the pin.

Nervously optimistic about the maiden voyage but I think we'll do fine.

Beer!

Iam always glad to see another Wisconsin Pod. I hope you enjoy your Pod as much as we do. Door County is great to camp in this time of year. Our favorite campground is on Washington Island.

Welcome to rpod world. I am originally from Wisconsin but moved to Arizona in 1990. Last June we purchased a 2017 rpod 179 and we quickly fell in love with it. We have only been on 4 excursions so far but plan many more. I remember Door County well and it is beautiful. Enjoy your new trailer.

Thanks! We are having fun loading and trying to make the transition from tent to the camper.

The tent only had a zipper and we quickly figured that out....the camper has "systems" so our zipper mentality is out the window...so to speak.

Beer!
